On a class of second order partial differential operators of non- principal type. (English) Zbl 0595.35122

Let P(x,D) be a second order linear differential operator with smooth coefficients and real value principal symbol \(p_ 2(x,\xi)\). Let \(q(x,\xi)=p_ 1(x,\xi)+(i/2)\sum p^{(j)}_{2(j)} (x,\xi)\) be its subprincipal symbol. Suppose that from \(p_ 2(x,\xi)=0\), \(d_{\xi}p_ 2(x,\xi)=0\) it follows that Im\(q(x,\xi)\neq 0\). Then at least one of the following estimates: \(\| u\|_ 1\leq C\| Pu\|_ 0\), \(\| u\|_ 1\leq C\| P^*u\|_ 0\) for \(u\in C_ 0^{\infty}(U)\) is valid.
